Benicio Del Toro as Wolfman Photo!

Jim a reader of the site just emailed us the first pic of Benicio Del Toro as The Wolfman. I have no clue where he got it from but this is friggin cool! The wolfman flm is directed by Mark Romanek (who also directed One Hour Photo and the video for Johnny Cash's cover of Hurt). As our writer GoldenSimatar pointed out earlier, in recent years, werewolf flicks haven't done so well spare for the Underworld films and hopefully despite this being a remake, it will inject some fresh blood into the sub-genre. Though they have been few, they have at least had cool looking werewolves...spare for Blood & Chocolate. The Wolf Man remake is slated for a November 14, 2008 release.

Update: This image has been removed the ORIGINAL source was an AICN exclusive. Although we were told it was circulating the web last week, and were able to confirm that and found it on a bunch of sites, the fact of the matter is it was an AICN exclusive and being that I dont read AICN on a regular basis I missed that fact. We man up when we fuckup and we owe the AICN guys an apology. So to the gang at AICN we apologize! Our regular readers know we source our news and we also man up when we make a mistake.

Our apologizes to the fine folks at AICN. The photo is of Benicio as the Wolf Man and was supplied to AICN by the director. Its not a general press photo! Go check them out for the exclusive.
